• Toasting pecans before incorporating them into your recipe brings out their flavor. It is best to toast them in the oven or skillet, but they can be toasted in the microwave in a pinch. Just cook them on high power for two minutes, checking and stirring them every 30 seconds.
• The best indicator that these cookies are done is when they start to bubble and turn a deep golden brown. Don’t rely too heavily on cooking times, as they can vary significantly from one oven to another.
• Slowly adding the cream cheese to the caramel mixture reduces the risk of it splattering.
